July 28, 20223 yr So, I have a server, with some shares. Those shares are set to use my cache SSD. In share settings -> use cache pool, I have set it to YES. YES states: Yes indicates that all new files and subdirectories should be written to the Cache disk/pool, provided enough free space exists on the Cache disk/pool. If there is insufficient space on the Cache disk/pool, then new files and directories are created on the array. When the mover is invoked, files and subdirectories are transferred off the Cache disk/pool and onto the array. Now i'm in the process of writing a lot of data to my share, my cache fills up, but it doesn't do as stated, it doesn't write the files directly to the share, it just fails with the error that there is insufficient space, Can anyone explain why ?
July 28, 20223 yr Community Expert You need to set the "minimum free space" parameter on the share and on the cache drive in Main to something bigger than the biggest file you expect to be transferred, only when there is less than that free on the cache will it start putting new files on the array.

July 28, 20223 yr Author Ahh that makes sense then. Would be nice if the above message had included that. Can it be changed after the cache is configured, when the array is offline or something ?
July 28, 20223 yr Community Expert You can change the one in the share at any time but for the one on the cache drive you have to stop the array
